Playful Pleats Aim High, Stay Dry!

09/08/2026

Apparently our idea of a relaxing NYC morning was walking 3 miles to Central Park, playing an HOUR of cardio tennis, and then walking 3 miles back. 😂🎾

I started the morning in a sweatshirt because it was only in the 70s.

That lasted approximately five minutes.

We WORKED. We sweated. We tested those Playful Pleats exactly the way they were meant to be tested. 💦

And one of my favorite parts of this entire trip — getting to hand a Playful Pleats skirt to another tennis girl right there at the Central Park courts. She loved it, and seeing someone discover the skirt in person never gets old. 🥹💚

Then we walked all the way back and made the very necessary stop at Ralph’s Coffee because 6 miles + cardio tennis absolutely earns you a coffee. ☕️

This is what I wanted this NYC trip to be about: tennis, meeting people, getting Playful Pleats out into the world…and having a little fun while we do it.

And yes, I still have skirts with me in NYC. 👀🎾

Follow along. You never know where the next one might end up.

Day 2 at the US Open 🎾💚

NYC, tennis, way too much coffee, a LOT of walking…and Playful Pleats right there with me through all of it.

There’s something pretty surreal about walking around the US Open wearing something that started as an idea in my head.

I came here to watch tennis, obviously 😂 — but also to meet people, talk about the brand, make connections and see where Playful Pleats might fit into this crazy tennis world.

And we’re only on Day 2.

🎾💚 Follow along. I have a few more days in NYC and I’m making them count.

Playful Pleats does NYC 🎾🗽💚

Day 1: matching-ish fits, Grand Central, permanent bracelets with one of my besties, a little US Open exploring and finally making it.

There is something pretty surreal about walking into the US Open wearing the little tennis brand I decided to build. 🥹

And yes… I packed enough Playful Pleats for basically every day we’re here.

NYC, we’re just getting started. 👀

If you see us around the city this week, SAY HI. I may or may not have a suitcase full of skirts with me. 😉🎾

09/05/2026

NYC bound and apparently my skirts get more suitcase space than I do. 😂🎾🗽

I’m bringing a suitcase FULL of Playful Pleats because I want to get these skirts onto as many tennis girls as I can while I’m in New York.

So yes… I’ll be gifting some while I’m there. 👀

If you’re in NYC, follow along with my Stories this week — and if you’re playing tennis while I’m in town, send me a DM and tell me where!

And if you happen to see me out there, PLEASE come say hi. 💚

New York, I brought the pleats. Let’s go. 🎾

How many times can a one-woman business say “we” in one meeting? 😂

“We’ll review it.”
“We’re working on it.”
“We’ll discuss internally.”
“We’ll get back to you.”

Ma’am. Who is WE?

It’s me. I am we. 😂

Founder. Product development. Marketing. Sales. Customer service. Shipping department. And apparently the entire executive leadership team.

Just another day at Playful Pleats 🎾💚

Early start to ALTA season and LOOK WHAT I SPOTTED 👀🎾💙

Playful Pleats hitting the courts for ALTA! 🥹

There’s something pretty special about seeing players show up in skirts that started as an idea in my head.

🎾 Want to get your team in Playful Pleats this season? DM us “TEAM” for team-order pricing + details.

Good luck this season, ladies! Now go put those pleats to work. 😉🎾

Some people buy Playful Pleats because the skirts are cute.

But THIS is why I made them. 🎾

My daughter happened to catch this little moment during cardio tennis Saturday — and I wish I could somehow film an entire match so you could see just how often I actually use the towel pleats.

Sweaty hands? Wipe them on the pleat.
Racket grip getting damp? Wipe it down.
Need to reset between points? It’s right there.

And I’ll tell you this: it might take wearing your skirt a couple of times before you really train yourself to remember, “Oh yeah…I have a TOWEL in my skirt.”

But once you start using it?

You use it ALL. THE. TIME.

And suddenly playing in a regular tennis skirt feels like it’s missing something.

Cute was never the whole point.

The power is in the pleats. 💚🎾

09/01/2026

It’s Tuesday. I leave for NYC for the US Open on Saturday.

Number of things currently packed in my suitcase: **0.** 😂

Meanwhile, I’ve been planning skirts, outfits, postcards, content, giveaways and approximately 847 other things for Playful Pleats…but apparently packing MY OWN BAG didn’t make the list.

So I need to know: **what kind of packer are you?**

🧳 A week before
🧳 2–3 days before
🧳 Night before
🧳 Frantically throwing things in a suitcase while you should already be leaving

Please tell me I’m not alone. 😂🎾🗽

A whole box of Mint to Win headed to the courts in Charleston. 😍🎾💚

Nicole ordered Grand Slams for her tennis team and seeing Playful Pleats show up like THIS will never get old.

Matching team skirts? Yes.
Built-in towel pleats? Obviously.
Looking ridiculously cute while doing it? Non-negotiable. 😉

And while we’re talking tennis… TODAY is the LAST DAY to enter to win TWO tickets to the US Open! 🎟️🎾

If you haven’t entered yet, get on it. Link in bio.

Charleston, I cannot wait to see these on the court. 💚

08/31/2026

This part is just really fun. 🎾📦

Packing up Playful Pleats PR and influencer boxes filled with skirts, socks and a little bit of everything I love about this brand. Every box is still packed by hand, tissue paper and all—and it’s pretty surreal knowing they’re about to land on someone else’s doorstep.

Now we wait for the unboxings… 👀
